Question

I can’t say I fully understand the script, because classes go beyond me as yet. Anyway, I’ve downloaded the py-omegle module from here . And I don’t seem to be able to get it to run.
Hoping that I don’t need to post the whole class including functions, the part in particular that I’m having trouble with pertains to urllib2 – so I guess It’s not too specific an issue – the line that causes all of the issues is:

self.connector = urllib2.build_opener(processor),urllib2.HTTPHandler(debuglevel=1)

and it’s not letting me:

#omegle.py
[ln33] self.connector.addheaders = [
[ln34]     ('User-agent',user_agent)
[ln35]     ]

       # or 

[ln98] self.id = self.connector.open(self.url+'start',data={}).read().strip('"')

Both return AttributeError:

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'addheaders'

# and further down
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'open'

Could someone please explain how to fix this? I’m sure it has something to do with the first line I posted. The entire source of the ONLY file in this module can be accessed here.

Answer 1

I think it’s a case of misplaced parentheses.

The first line:

self.connector = urllib2.build_opener(processor),urllib2.HTTPHandler(debuglevel=1)

creates a tuple consisting of

 urllib2.build_opener(processor)

and

 urllib2.HTTPHandler(debuglevel=1)

And then assigns this tuple to self.connector.
